The junior police officer asked, puzzled, "They caught us red-handed, what other evidence do they need?"
The old policeman glared at him. "Listen to what he just said. Do you think he only knows the crimes we see right now? He might also be involved with human traffickers. Go find them now!"
Upon hearing this, the young policeman immediately became serious and replied, "Yes, sir."
The old policeman tied up Fatty Huang and had someone watch over him. Then he went upstairs to check on the rest of the Huang family and found that Fatty Huang's older brother and mother were dead, and Fatty Huang's father and sister-in-law were injured and unconscious.
The old policeman arranged for someone to take Huang's father and sister-in-law to the hospital, and then led the rest of the people to collect evidence at Huang's house.
"Boss, come quick!" The young policeman found a key in Huang's father's room and hurriedly called the old policeman upstairs.
“This key opens this secret door.” The young police officer was very experienced in investigation and search. He noticed something was wrong after searching Huang’s father’s room for a short while, and sure enough, he found a clue.
"Open it!" the old policeman said excitedly.
With witnesses and physical evidence found at the Huang family's home, even if the Emperor himself came, the Huang family wouldn't be able to overturn the case this time.
Maybe we can even bring down each of the various committees together.
The door opened, and the group went down the stairs to the basement, where they saw three large boxes neatly arranged.
When the group opened the box, they were dazzled by what was inside.
One box was filled with gold bars, another with antique paintings and calligraphy, and the third with jewelry and jade.
The young police officer couldn't help but click his tongue in amazement: "The Huang family actually has so many treasures hidden away!"
The old policeman sneered, "These things are obviously of dubious origin. I never expected that Comrade Huang from the various committees would condone his family members breaking the law. It seems we need to make a trip to Comrade Huang's house."
With these three boxes of stuff, the Huang family is finished this time!
What they didn't know was that these three boxes were what Ye Weiwei had left over after picking through the items, and that Ye Weiwei had also put away more than a dozen boxes containing even better treasures.
She couldn't possibly have come all that way to the Huang family's house in the middle of the night empty-handed.
If she hadn't been worried that taking all of the Huang family's things would prevent a quick conviction, she wouldn't have actually planned to keep so much.
Since it was all ill-gotten gains anyway, she felt no guilt taking it. She considered it as payment for avenging those persecuted by the Huang family. She believed that those people wouldn't mind seeing the Huang family's current state.
"Boss, look, I also found an account book."
The young police officer, as expected of a detective, quickly recovered from the shock of the three large boxes of treasures and found something more useful.
The old policeman took a look and was immediately enraged, cursing, "These beasts! Take the things back, and then immediately send someone to arrest the entire Huang family, leave no one alive!"
"Yes." The junior policeman didn't see what was written in the ledger, but seeing how angry the senior policeman was, he knew it must be something serious, so he quickly did as he was told.
That night, the entire Huang family in the county was arrested, including Huang Pangzi's wife and child who had brought their child home when the incident occurred, as well as Huang Laoda's son.
When they were arrested, Huang's son was having a good time at a young widow's house when the police caught them in the act.
When Huang Laoda's son, Huang Baoguo, was arrested, he was just as arrogant as Huang Pangzi, threatening and intimidating the police officers, saying that if they dared to arrest him, his uncle would not let them off the hook. As a result, the police officers who came to arrest him couldn't help but punch him unconscious and drag him away.
Even when death is imminent, he's still spouting nonsense.
I've had my eye on this bastard for ages, he's asking for a beating!
Ye Weiwei secretly followed the police to the house of Huang Yaozong, Huang Pangzi's uncle. She originally planned to take advantage of the time difference and collect some of the good things hidden in the Huang family before the police arrived. However, she found nothing after scanning Huang Yaozong's house several times with her mental power.
She didn't believe Huang Yaozong really had nothing.
If it cannot be detected by mental energy, it is very likely that it is hidden somewhere else or buried underground.
Ye Weiwei placed her hand on a large tree outside Huang Yaozong's house, and her wood-type supernatural ability began to probe underground along the tree's roots.
Soon, the tree's root system revealed six large boxes buried underground in the Huang family's backyard.
Without hesitation, Ye Weiwei put those boxes into her spatial storage.
Then, using the same method, they found six well-sealed boxes in the well in the backyard of the Huang family.
Ye Weiwei looked at the boxes in the space, which were fewer than those found at Fatty Huang's house. Huang Yaozong's family definitely had more than this much wealth.
If it can't be found at home, then it must be hidden somewhere else.
Ye Weiwei used her mental power to envelop the entire Huang family, carefully observing the members to see if there were any unusual movements.
As expected.
Upon hearing that something had happened to Fatty Huang's family, Huang Yaozong immediately put on an old military overcoat and a Lei Feng hat, preparing to flee.
This guy is ruthless; he didn't even notify his family, and just ran away alone with the messenger.
Ye Weiwei used her mental energy to track the two people, watching them wander through a maze of turns until they reached a small alley, entered an empty old house, and then crawled into a dry well in the courtyard.
Ye Weiwei's spiritual power followed the two people and found that after they entered the dry well, they went through a stone door in the well and entered an underground stone chamber.
This stone chamber is at least two hundred square meters in size, and it is filled with hundreds of boxes of various sizes. These boxes are all filled with antique paintings and calligraphy, and precious cultural relics. Only a few boxes contain gold, jewelry and jade.
"When are they coming to pick up this batch of goods?" Huang Yaozong asked his subordinate Huang Wen with a stern face.
Huang Wen's expression was grave. "It was originally scheduled for tomorrow night, but now that this has happened, should we reschedule?"
Huang Yaozong punched the box next to him and said angrily, "Tell them that if the deal can be completed before dawn tomorrow, I will give them another 20% discount."
"Yes. I'll go tell them right away." Huang Wen left in a hurry.
A cold glint flashed in Ye Weiwei's eyes. It seemed that Huang Yaozong was very likely involved in a cultural relic smuggling case.
She had just scanned the boxes carefully with her mental power and discovered that most of the cultural relics, antiques, and paintings inside were rare treasures that would be displayed in museums in later generations.
It's unknown how many valuable items Huang Yaozong amassed by abusing his position, or how many cultural relics ended up in the hands of outsiders.
Damn it!
While keeping an eye on Huang Yaozong's side, Ye Weiwei also kept a close eye on Huang Wen's movements, seeing who he was contacting and trading with, and thinking about how to lure the police here.
By this time, the police had arrived at Huang Yaozong's house and arrested all of Huang's family members except for Huang Yaozong.
